Don't give birth to children you can't comfortably take care of, give options in life, and leave a good inheritance for. People who give birth in poor, abject conditions have no conscience.

It's amazing how you didn't sexualize the scenes like every one of us!

What happens to privacy even the phone companies tell that IMEI is just use for emergency. Let's not use because of insecurity to justify this. Do you know how many branches of police we have in this country and yet we still bring up policy that they can't train the police on how to use it. Since nin registration how many crime have they been able to solve using it let's be objective and see how things work. For me all this are not necessary. Let's have census is you're identified as a citizen a number should be assigned to you like what the USA have SSN everything you do getting a job or buying stuff using ur debit card you number will be linked to it. With the level of data usa have crime is been committed over their. I still need a valid argument from them the reason they need the IMEI because this one doesn't hold water.

To be honest with you, That's the problem of developing Country... They give little or no information before enforcing any Bill, And that gives room to speculations...they should have informed the Citizens first the reasons why they were doing what they were doing.......There should have been room for a press conference where they can highlight the advantage, the disadvantage, benefits etc and rooms for Questions and answer section...So my brother I don't know...I was only speaking out of little experience based on how it works....

But on a lighter note bro if for example, u found yourself in UK tonight... and you were asked to do this/register your SIM, will u demand for an explanation on why?

ChikezieU:
and you think that medium through which you demand your lost phone be tracked for you will be accessible to you?...

Just like when your account is hacked and you lose your money to another account that will never be traced yet the bank system has a database...

Just saying what I know bro because it's a system that works for many countries...It is universally accepted... It could be a baby step to help reduce insecurity in Nigeria...Especially when the govt wants to track those criminals that uses different destroyable SIM with one phone... if registered, it could help put a name to the person using the device...
In terms of tracking, anyone can do it themselves... just try reading how it works on google.

ChikezieU:
Submitting EMEI is not the problem, using it to oppress innocent citizens for speaking up or opposition to their crazy ideas is.

tymicjay77:
What of a situation where the phone was stolen and the person that stole the phone used it to commit crime or the phone was trace to a crime scene. Nah another problem be that , note in this country where even if you complaint to Authority immediately after the phone theft , they will still be harrasing you for questioning.... Although it is a good idea but the laziness of black man will not let the good motive of the initiative to function well.

Mrquote:
Ok but that's already in place with the IMEI, the cell tower and yhe nin can help with that.

Mrquote:
Then why not use nin to achieve this why all this registration is like they are up to something.

lexy2014:
I didn't ask u what phone& it's contents means to some people. U made a fallacious claim that phone registration will reduce crime alot in nigeria and I asked u how will phone registration reduce crime. Up till now, u can't defend ur comment. All u are doing is making off point comments. I ask again how will phone registration reduce crime in nigeria?

Bahun:
Bro with the NIN reg. How many criminals have been brought to book?

lexy2014:
Oga, u said phone registration will reduce CRIME. Except u don't no what CRIME is or u think crime is restricted to phone stealing, I don't see anything u have said that supports ur assertion that phone registration will reduce crime

sevenhundred:
what about those who sell the phone in spare parts?

lexy2014:
Oga, how will registering phone reduce crime alot in nigeria?

Kondomatic:
I understand your point bro but this is Nigeria.

The first thing to do is to make life a bit easier for the common man. Once there jobs, the cost of living is reasonable etc the rate of crime will reduce.

But as long as we have this incredible number of unemployed people in Nigeria and as long as the number keeps multiplying, crime will keep multiplying.

You see this policy? It's only good in papers.

The same police you report to will charge you to help you trace your phone, sometimes their charge is more than the cost of the phone.

The werey imei will be wiped and replaced in certain phones.

We already have specialists in unlocking/buying stolen phones.

Do you think those people that format locked phones, wipe and change imei etc do not know that the phones were stolen?

wolfenstein:
Who told u, if they still want to steal the phone they will. The ones they have stolen, has anything been done about finding it? To track phone self is a problem if u provide them with the imei when ur phone is stolen. The next thing u will see is government will use us to be cashing out on that aspect. Releasing our imei to this present government will be the worse thing ever

They will steal your phone... yes but it will be useless.. because you will report and it will be locked. before it's opened, Questions like
IS it a SIM Locked? Was this phone stolen or lost? and so on ..All this uncomfortable questions would be asked and it will be dictated in the system when the person comes to unlock... It would deter some people from buying stolen phones..And before any phone is opened, you come with some ID...Like international passport, Local ID not birth certificate ....

1Alex:
no be SIM dem dey talk na IMEI of your phone.

Pauldollars:
Do NCC think every Nigerian use the same phone for years?
